can't find the words to sing, You'd be my remedy
It's been so long since I last posted!
Last week, I got to see Switchfoot for the 4th time...and it was yet again a confirmation of how great a band they are.
I was originally super hyped up for the concert, but in light of the recent earthquake in Haiti...it just felt odd to be going to a concert in the first place.
I've never witnessed a band so humble, frankly. Jon (lead singer) just stays in conversation with the crowd throughout the night, and even braved the crowds several times to physically interact with the audience. (I resisted molesting him...it was hard to keep my self-control and dignity)
It turned out to be a pretty lovely time of personal reflection and worship for me - Switchfoot has always been good at asking tough questions about life, and love, and why. Here are the lyrics from my fave song of the night: "Always". Jon played the piano on this one...bonus.
This is the start
This is your heart
This is the day you were born
This is the sun
These are your lungs
This is the day you were born
And I am always, always, always yours
These are the scars
Deep in your heart
This is the place you were born
This is the hole
Where most of your soul
Comes ripping out
From the places you’ve been torn
And it is always, always, always yours
Hallelujah! I’m caving in...
Hallelujah! I’m in love again...
Hallelujah! I’m a wretched man...
Hallelujah! Every breath is a second chance...
